I came from incredible, while as i stated before the ui is slower and clunkier than incredible the spped of opening apps and eeverything else is way better. My quadrant benchmarks are faster than my DInc with froyo installed and a custom overclocked kernel. The sense ui is the most polished custom ui out there to say the least. This phone has FAR better graphics and multimedia abilities. Given a little time and the addition of froyo this will b one of the best phones u can buy for some time. The TI OMAP is a superior proccssor in almost every way. Also this phone has guerrilla glass. For those who don't know that is some tough ****. I think the only lagging that happens is the homescreen scrolling. After 3 days with the x its a keeper to me. Also the battery life is twice that of my incredible.
[Droid X General] mcclanahoochie:
See this thread for a nice comparison between Droid 1 and Droid X :)

EVO zoomed in on "mobile" pages. I assume other HTC phones do too.

I realize it zooms on non-mobile pages, but of course mobile pages are the ones your going to get on a (mobile) phone. :-/

BTW, even on non-mobile pages, the zooming in uneven, as the follow-on double-tap to re-flow text will often not work (depends on other formating on the page). Again EVO (HTC) was better at this. Not saying there aren't DX advantages too, but this is a major drawback to the DX browser.

I'll second the quick open experience. Very nice. Also (may be related), non of the 3-5 second hanging on app installs I've seen on other Android phones.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] eaglesteve:
I wonder if my unit is faulty. I find that the auto rotate does not work very well. It refuses to rotate sometimes, and the only way seems to be to shake it. But when I do so, sometimes the orientation is upside downs.

Am I alone with this problem?
[Galaxy S I9000 General] stickfinger:
Hi Steve, my auto rotate isn't totally perfect but i'd say its good enough and i certainly haven't had to shake it yet lol

I find sometimes you need to lift it up (as if taking a picture) to let gravity kick in on the sensor.

Just had a thought....I installed a compass app (i think on the first day i got the phone) and i had to move the phone in a figure 8 to calibrate it, maybe i calibrated mine without knowing? that is if it even uses the same sensor?
[Galaxy S I9000 General] eaglesteve:
Oh well, may be the fact that it does not rotate well is a good thing when using on bed. I'm looking at the half full glass.:D
[myTouch 3G Slide Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Virus1x:
does it matter if i flash my phones rom deleting the old one..

basicly...

If i change the rom 1x - 10,000x will the phone still run the same or does it eat up memory and force phone to lag
[myTouch 3G Slide Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Virus1x:
I asked..

Does it matter how many times you flash your phone if you wipe does it leave residual memory to eat up and lag your phone or does it not affect it at all
[myTouch 3G Slide Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Virus1x:
I believe it does when I went into recovery I clean not only the factory wipe but also the cache wipe but i'd be curious to know more
[myTouch 3G Slide Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tubaking182:
i have not ever noticed any issues with flashing multiple ROMs, as long as you are wiping then you should be fine and no residual issues will be found, if you choose not to wipe you will likely end up in a boot loop, or a "brick" as some call it, but those are fixable with a wipe and reflash. if someone wants to correct me then great something new i learned, but i flashed almost every ROM for the G1 and never had any issues so long as i wiped the phone
[myTouch 3G Slide Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Virus1x:
the G1 might be a bit different then the Slide hence the question

but thankyou for your input

Worked well over wifi. Its not something i would use often tho, usually streaming it from my comp allows for better control and flexibility. I could see some situations where if you went to a friends house and they had some enabled tv's or etc you could pop in some movies off ur phone.

Thinking about flashing to a stock 2.2 FroYo ROM (Cyanogen's)...

But would I be able to copy the apk's presently for the HTC Facebook/Friendstream apps, and install those onto FroYo JUST for contact picture/info syncing purposes?

I'm not interested in using the actual Friendstream app or anything. I just want to have my Facebook contacts sync ok.

I have screen problems so have to take phone back.

I tried running the first file from here:

http://shipped-roms.com/shipped/Supersonic/

it ended with an error along the lines of "ROM manager cannot update your phone."

It then went into bootloop. I was able to get back into Clockwork recovery, re-flasjed a previous ROM, but it is still in boot loop.

I did clear user data and cache... help...
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] fifoloveritas:

I actually unrooted before I did the OTA that came late last month. It's not that hard and it can be done with a simple executible file that ends in .RUU.

But yeah, the first link explains it well.
[Vibrant General] skater4690:
what would be the best i guess service? you should use wcdma gsm cdma on this phone? if you wanna pick your signal you can get into the secret menu by going to your dialer and putting *#*#4636#*#* tell me what you guys think about this...
[Vibrant General] Jon C:
What?

I don't...

What? :confused:
[Vibrant General] cashless:
This is a GSM phone, changing it to anything else might just brick it.

*Maybe posting those test codes was a bad idea.
[Vibrant General] heygrl:
*#*#4636#*#* and phone information won't change anything. AT ALL.
[Vibrant General] temperbad:
Correct my n1 could lock on wcdma through that window but for some reason the vibrant won't lock onto it..... but the vibrant holds a betyer 3g signal than my n1 did...
[Vibrant General] larryccf:
i noticed where my MyTouch 3G had a "wcdma preferred" selection, this one has "WCDMA only", or "GSM/CDMA PRL"

mine came default set to the "GSM/CDMA PRL" and i changed to WCDMA only

connection or download speed seemed to pick up some

i don't think you're going to brick your phone changing that selection - if it doesn't show an improvement, or if you're in a 2g coverage area, i presume it will drop your svc, but don't know why you can't just reselect the default setting
[Vibrant General] setzer715:
This is just wrong information. This is a GSM/WCDMA phone. 2G/Edge is GSM technology where 3G/UMTS is WCDMA technology. I force my phone back and fourth all the time for network testing.

P.S. I'm a field tech for TMO.
[Vibrant General] setzer715:
I dont have my vibrant yet, on its way. So your saying that when you enter the phone info page WCDMA Only is not longer an option in the drop down menu? Or is it grayed out?
[Vibrant General] Jon C:
Cool.

If you can, will you post on here if you hear any rumblings of an OTA to fix:

GPS reception issues

The Totally Broken Compass

General 3G Reception problems

Please? :(

Or, hey, if you can confirm if the issues at hand are software or hardware-related. That would do it for me.
[Vibrant General] temperbad:
Its still they're just switching it don't lock it on wcdma only like the n1....

Itll still switch to edge... Just doesnt do anything.
[Vibrant General] heygrl:
It doesn't work. You have to access the service menu.
[Vibrant General] setzer715:
Well, if I want to keep my job I'm not supposed to post privileged information but I will say this, most issues wont be acknowledged until a specific amount of complaints are called in. In bold words, if no one complains to T-Mobile directly (not on a forum) they wont fix anything. That's just Business 101. Sorry I wish I could be more help.

As for if they are software or hardware, I do not know that. As the phone has only been out for a week, there has been no information from within about any issues. Again, sorry!
[Vibrant General] setzer715:
Must be a samsung thing? Anyone with behold II experience chime in on this?
[Vibrant General] heygrl:
My 3G reception has been fine considering T-Mobile's 3G tower deployment and with how my old phone behaved, but anyway it does appear to be a Samsung thing. The -dBm readout under the Android menu system is completely wrong.
[Vibrant General] jnp1974:
I too have noticed that making changes in the *#*#4636#*#* menu to the band selection does not stay. As soon as you go back into this menu, the setting is reverted back to GSM/CDMA auto (PRL), no matter what I set it to. I have noticed that this setting will stick, however, on my N1. The only differences I can see between the Vibrant and my N1 are that the Vibrant is 2.1, and the N1 is 2.2.

Anyone have any ideas as to why this setting doesn't stay?

Mind telling how you fixed that error again step by step or where to find?
[Vibrant General] mikey98277:
How I got my sims to work

First thing I had to do was uninstall the lag fix, as it would crash all the time as it was taking up to much of the memory. When back to normal non lag fix I would get the heap error when buying and moving stuff, usually could buy 2 things, or move 2 things, or one of each and then on the 3rd thing i would get the heap error. So following the suggestion of someone else that uprooted the entire garden and the error stopped, so i tried this and it fixed the heap error issue, I only tested for one day, but i moved and sold about 50 things in a row without an issue. Like i said before i could never even do 3 in a row. So no lag fix and not garden and everything works fine on the sims 3.

Credit goes to to lund0529 for figuring this out.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] cheetah2k:
A friend of mine here in Australia bought an SGS from Singapore via EMS premium tracked post on the 24th June 2010.

He was told by the seller today that Singapore Post (EMS) lost it (confirmed by the www.speedpost.com.sg website as well).

So, buyer beware. I saw a scanned copy of the consignment note, and the sender put "mobile phone" and value SG$950 on it. The phone made it as far as "being sorted for shipping" and that was it...

So if you are brave enough to buy one and have it shipped internationally, I recommend you put "MP3 player" and a much lower value.... Who ever stole it within Singapore post must have thought it was an iPhone lol..

Shame really, also because if the shipment is lost, you can only claim up to SG$150.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] eaglesteve:
Was it stolen before leaving Singapore or after arriving in Australia?
[Galaxy S I9000 General] manjusrix:
hmm..this isn't really singapore's fault is it? i mean..EMS isn't a well known brand of shipping in singapore. Fedex seems to be the popular choice. then again..rates of them dropping it is super low so i guess you shouldn't be making this thread featuring singapore and ems.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] eaglesteve:
Singapore Post is probably the equivalent of the Australian post, and people choose it because it is cheaper, I guess. Don't they offer higher insured value with higher insurance premium though?
[Galaxy S I9000 General] cheetah2k:
It didnt even make it to Australia - infact, didnt even make it to Singapore Customs - after 14 days of tracing it

Was lost / stolen at the Sorting Centre in Singapore....

I think its pretty poor really... I've used EMS post thousands of times out of China and Hong Kong, and the first time my friend has used EMS out of Singapore, the shipment goes missing... Just happened to co-incide with the release of the iphone 4, so I reckon someone thought they were on a winner. Oh well, who ever it was, got a better phone than the iphone 4 (lol)

I think its a good idea not to put the true contents on the consignment note where everyone can see it, and especially if you're purchasing out of Singapore.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] alovell83:
Singapore is a very safe country with a strong rule of law, I would heartedly disagree with what you've just said. However, if you can only get $150 SD due to loss (I assume this is because optional/full insurance wasn't used) then I wouldn't put the whole declared value on it. Only put the value upto the point you can be reimbursed, that should be a rule of thumb for ordering domestically or internationally between any two countries.

There are bad apples in every countries, Singapore included. :)
[Galaxy S I9000 General] Gooofy:
Why buy such a expensive device and scrimp on the shipping ;< I feel sorry for you bro.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] AllGamer:
there are many ebay sellers that ships via FedEX, so in the worse case scenario, FedEX will pay for the phone if it ever gets lost or damaged.

but... that takes like a whole month and more to process, been there done that, not exactly a "fun" situation you want to be in.

I had the same problem with the core cell rom and never figured out how to fix it so I swiched to the Energy's Dinik rom And I'v been happy ever since.You'll love the action button instead of camera on your home screen. Oh and core cell changes your splash screen so if you decide to swich rom's you'll have to swich the splash too. Thanks to everyone at xda if it weren't for you this thing would be just a phone and i would have nothing to do at 2:00 am lol
[HD2 General] nardone24:
Not to Knock this rom but if i where you i would stay away from Core Cell. I have had nothing but problems with that rom and i swore by it for a while.

I reflashed to Omega 4.1 and have never looked back.

wrecless is right core cell changes the splash screen so youd have to either flash a stock rom first then the new rom or just flash a splash screen you choose.

Remember task 29 before you flash the new rom. it will clear out any thing that might be left over from Core cell..

[HD2 General] samteeee:
Hi guys:

I'm sure all you guys had different experiences/issues with "core cell" but to defend this Rom, I have to say I have had it since version v1 and sure there

were some bugs just like any other Roms but to say it is buggy and freezing

all the time, it is just not true. And also the current version "v3" is fully compatible with any Android Roms(personally tested) and IMHO is one of the best Roms available for HD2 from "sergio76 & Team".
[HD2 General] Scabes24:
Agreed,

At first I was having some issues with freezing, but then preformed task29 -> flashed 2.08.50.08 radio -> flashed v3 core cell -> hard reset

no more issues :D
